Insecurity and Uncertainty Are conjoined twins At the breast At the hips Share one heart But dreaming minds Are opposite.... Insecure yearns to learn to know More of one's strengths To want / to star / in one's own show But deep down to just Be in or have - love, And have-not the pain of lonely / lost. While... Uncertain, a nervous nelly, Frights at all things, Knots in one's belly, Avoids the world, preoccupied Runs away and closes one's eyes Still Uncertain Becomes experienced A slow student who covets time And gains wisdom in resilience Discarding fears of one's own mind... Both of will And body grown Both with heart Their love has sown The seeds / kind of ugly May be the kindest lives From rough and coal Becoming A diamond light... Inside One's eyes... Behold beautifully

Insecurity and Uncertainty Are conjoined twins At the breast At the hips Share one heart But dreaming minds Are opposite.... Insecure yearns to learn to know More of one's strengths To want / to star / in one's own show But deep down to just Be in or have - love, And have-not the pain of lonely / lost. While... Uncertain, a nervous nelly, Frights at all things, Knots in one's belly, Avoids the world, preoccupied Runs away and closes one's eyes Still Uncertain Becomes experienced A slow student who covets time And gains wisdom in resilience Discarding fears of one's own mind... Both of will And body grown Both with heart Their love has sown The seeds / kind of ugly May be the kindest lives From rough and coal Becoming A diamond light... Inside One's eyes...
